Vimana Ii. - Music

Toys Of Ancient Gods Play With Time And Space. Travel Around The World Taste The Past Try The Most Deserved Cultural Miracles And It Makes You Dance. Their First Record Titled "Stones Are Talking" Was Produced In 1993 Using Elements From Javanese Gamelan Music Resulting In A Unique Dance-Fusion Style. Many Artists Tried To Use World Music In Their Productions But Toys Of Ancient Gods Differ From Others Because They Use A Very Strong Concept Based On Erich Von Däniken's And AAS' Ancient Astronaut Society Views About The World. Those Concepts Initiated The Whole Production And Led To The Main Idea Of The Second Album As Well. As You Surely Know Mr. Von Däniken And AAS Think That Some Thousand Years Ago Astronauts Visited Earth And Their Visit Changed History And The Development Of Humanity. Mr Von Däniken And AAS Constantly Seek The Evidence To Prove Their Theory And They Succeed In Finding Some Strange Sculptures Buildings Traditional Scripts Material Legacies Legends Tales Myths Sagas. The Musician Can Find The Same Traces In World Music In Traditional Ethnical Rhytms And Dances And It Proves That The Exploration Of Old Traditional Music Can Lead Humanity To New A Previously Unknown Path. Toys Of Ancient Gods Recognized This And Bravely Undertook The Responsibility Of Showing This New Path To Humanity. Due To The Communication Revolution Of The 20th Century People On Earth Cannot Be Isolated Anymore And Using Those Channels They Can Be Infected By Strongly Manipulated Trends. It Means That Dance Music Wich Is Very Popular Nowadays Works Us A Common Musical Language And It's Easily Comprehensible By French Indian Brazilian Japanese American Australian Or Hungarian People Toys Of Ancient Gods Is A Hungarian Project . It Is Not Accidental That The Creators Chose This Widely Open Musical Style As A Base Of Their World Music Project. After Collecting Ethnical Traces And World Music Samples For A Long Time A First Project Has Been Made Titled "WORLD DANCE Pt. I-VIII.". With The First Album The Producers Encountered The First Problems As Well. They Asked Permission To Use Samples Not Collected By Them. They Got All The Necessary Permission But One And This Last One Cancelled The Whole Project. Only A Double A-Sided Single Was Released Officially Vimana/Truth Of The Legends . The Whole Material Of The Album Is Spreading In Uncontrollable Pirated Copies In The Hands Of - Mainly Hungarian - Collectors. After Long-Long And Unsuccesful Discussions The Creators Decided To Make A New Album With All The New Ideas Since The Making Of The First CD. It Contains 3 Cover Versions From The First Album Fe. Vimana II Based On Vimana . The New Collection Named "Cargo Cult" Is Based Entirely On Legal Samples And Got Its Title From One Of The Previous Songs. The Material Follows The Path Pioneered By World Dance Pt. I-VIII. But It Brings Some Novelties World Dance's Songs Made A Trip Around The World In One Song But Cargo Cult's Songs Are Staying On A Selected Territory. Earlier They Used More Science-Fiction Based Quotations But Cargo Cult Uses Song-Titles Based On Mr. Von Däniken's Foreign Language Words Instead Of English Titles. The Music Is Based Mostly On The Dance Style Using Their Subordinate Styles Like House Ambient-Trance And Dub-Oriented Grooves. One Of The Best Songs Stands Out From The Rest. It's A Slower Chinese "P'an Ku". Before The Plans For Further Toys Of Ancient Gods Releases There Is A Double A-Side Single Featuring "P'an Ku" And "Garuda" Songs And Their Re-Mixes.
